The project supports the establishment of a fire-rated test room at the Fire Safety Research Center, Faculty of Engineering, Chulalongkorn University.

A leading Thai construction industry company, in partnership with Shino-Thai and Sukulthai, has developed a Fire Rated Test room at the Faculty of Engineering, Chulalongkorn University. This facility has received certification from the Industrial Product Standards Office, Ministry of Industry. It marks a significant advancement in construction standards, offering a solution that reduces the costs and time previously required for sending materials abroad for testing. This initiative supports domestic education and research while advancing ESG goals, such as reducing greenhouse gas emissions and enhancing transparency. Additionally, it makes standard testing more accessible to small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), thereby improving safety and reducing long-term dependence on foreign countries.
